I'm pudgey enough as it is. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> Yes, its probably best to keep the math relatively simple. If I want to crunch numbers, I'll play an Expert with maxed out Profession (Math Teacher) Skill. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Hey it was late, I was tired, and I couldn't be bothered coming up with names for them. Yours will do in a pinch though. Constitution would increase if it were a permanent, natural progression of size, as detailed in the Monster Manual. Extrapolating from that, I should gain a +32 to my Con score. However, since I'm artificially (ie. divinely) altering my size temporarily, and not really undergoing any physiological changes, (do deities even have physiologies anymore? do they need to use the bathroom?) then perhaps a Con increase isn't in order after all. The extra 16 hit points per Hit Dice would be nice though, and since many deities have 60 Hit Dice (20 Outsider HD and 40 Class Levels), that's an extra 960 hit points. Still doesn't seem like much more staying power in a fight considering how massive I have become. The increase in Hit Dice seems even more obvious an idea than the increase in Con, but there are no clearly defined rules to govern this as far as I'm aware. The creatures in the MM don't seem to follow any set rule as to how many Hit Dice they need to advance before reaching a new Size category. According to the MM, increases past Large Size do not result in any further loss of Dex. Agile behemoths we have running around in the D&D universe, aren't they? You're flying off on a tangent? What did you think I was doing? <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Ohhh, now that opens up a whole new sent of tangent flying possibilities! Mortals could be running all over me like a swarm of spiders, hacking and stabbing for all they're worth! Like Creeping Doom with humanoids instead of insects. What's the comparative weight/mass of the planet Earth? How would my gravity compare to an Earth-like planet? An interesting thought, and one that I had myself, but a normal human being wouldn't come close to accurately representing the size of the deity in all its impossibly humongous glory! Perhaps I could hire the WWF's Big Show to come and stand on my table...Hey, that actually sounds balanced and useable! Therefore as a Humongous (1024 ft-2048 ft.) being, I would be x256 my original size, granting my x16 speed. Since I'm a deity, starting with a 60 ft. land movement rate, my new speed is 960 ft. Since my legs are probably ~700 ft. long, this could accound for two relatively short steps taken each round. I don't even want to think of the implications that a 1,600 ft woman would have for porn movies. We'll not go there! Timbeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!Agreed.</blockquote>
